"An Al Jazeera reporter was attacked at a the central rally marking Land Day in Sakhnin Saturday, apparently over his news network’s coverage of the conflict in Syria.

Thousands marched and demonstrated in Sakhnin and elsewhere to mark Land Day, which protests what Arab Israelis and Palestinians say are discriminatory Israeli land distribution policies.

In Sakhnin, demonstrators — among them Arab Israeli MKs — waved both Palestinian flags and Syrian flags as they marched through the city, and some openly demonstrated in support of Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime."
